When it comes to funding your business, there are a number of options that might be suitable for financing its start up or growth. A secured business loan involves the lender taking one or more of your company’s hard assets as ‘security.’ This could include premises, a company vehicle, or plant and machinery.
This type of lending is easier to obtain than an unsecured loan, as the lender’s exposure to risk of non-payment is reduced. Unsecured loans, on the other hand, may be more beneficial to your business as there is no threat of losing an asset should the company experience financial difficulty.

When taking out a secured business loan, the lender will require collateral to reduce their exposure to risk. If your company then defaults on the loan, the lender is able to recover the funds by taking ownership of the asset and selling it.
Secured business loans are commonly offered with longer repayment terms than unsecured loans. Loan amounts are generally higher, and a secured loan can also be a better option if your company does not have a good credit rating.

To obtain an unsecured loan from your bank, you may need to provide a personal guarantee. This is enforceable should your company fail to make the repayments, in which case you will need to repay the loan from your personal funds.
Director personal guarantees are commonplace these days, and it remains difficult to obtain a ‘traditional’ business loan without one unless you provide security to the lender. The problem is that some guarantees are signed by directors in a mistaken belief that they will never be called upon.
